Answer»

The correct answer is (b) Spent fuel

The BEST I can explain: Spent fuel is the UNPROCESSED fuel that is removed from the reactor CORE after reaching end of core LIFE service. It is removed and then stored for 3 to 4 months under water in the plant SITE to give time for the most intense radioactive isotopes to decay.
